1. Very interesting.....

[Bernardo de La Paz]

2. At first I thought Warren would be a great VP (she would) but she is needed in the Senate

Senator Elizabeth Warren was my hope to be nominee, but alas it did not come to pass.

Joe Biden will be an excellent President.

[cstanleytech]

32. Greg Fischer might make a great VP and it does not have any potential to hurt us in

the Senate should he accept.
Plus choosing him puts more of a focus on Kentucky which might help defeat Moscow Mitch as the people of Kentucky deserve a Senator that refuses to be Putin's bitch.

3. This is how we "move left." Trashing Democrats doesn't do it.

46. Precisely!

5. Will an endorsement be in the near future?

6. Wonderful News!!!!!

Wonderful news from the Biden Campaign! This will bring us together to be powerful in the November election!

[BluesClues]

7. Smart

Wonder if he's going to put a progressive as VP.

[showblue22]

8. Biden is progressive.

He has more progressive accomplishments than anyone else in the race.

[Blue_true]

21. Exactly. No one else measures up to Biden's accomplishments in the

progressive sphere, even when their claims are loudly claimed.

Biden's one mis-step was the Crime Bill, and only because it didn't have explicit wording about sentencing and duration of sentencing.

Biden has written or strongly influenced some enduring progressive legistlation like the Violence against Women Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act.

[showblue22]

24. The extension of the voting rights act.

First to get climate legislation passed in 1986, Paris Climate accord and more.

[emmaverybo]

51. In addition to the VAWA in the crime bill, gun control, money allocated for crime prevention,

community policing, gang prevention, and drug deterrence courts were included.

[treestar]

9. Representing the entire nation and not just Delaware

makes a big difference.

[Magoo48]

10. Good on ya, Joe!

[nolabear]

12. Thanks for that.

[ALBliberal]

11. I really admire leaders that are able to admit they

made mistakes or are willing to learn and adapt. Reminds me of PBO changing his position on gay marriage. Good for Biden and Warren and ultimately good for the American people.

[dansolo]

17. Warren will have much more influence than Bernie

She knows what it takes to get real reforms done. Too bad she signed on to Bernie's M4A garbage. She backed herself into a corner, and it sunk her campaign.

[ALBliberal]

19. She is a valuable resource. Biden is smart and he will

include her in policy making decisions.

[onetexan]

25. Bernie w not be happy about that of course

In which case we will know the adult in the room is Elizabeth.

[Thekaspervote]

30. Oh ouch!!

[SunSeeker]

13. K & R

[sunonmars]

14. She will be a huge campaign asset...Economic Secretary may be in her future.

[jmowreader]

34. If we take the Senate back I want her to be Majority Leader

[OneCrazyDiamond]

41. I think it is decided by years in the Senate. N/T.

[jmowreader]

48. No, they just pick the person they like the best

In the current Senate, the longest-serving member is Patrick Leahy, a Democrat (elected in 1974). Then come Orrin Hatch (elected in 1976), Thad Cochran (elected in 1978), and Chuck Grassley (elected in 1980) before you get to Mitch McConnell (elected in 1984).

[Hav]

15. That's the difference right there

If you really care about your plans besides talking about it, you try to find allies and persuade those who could help you. On the other side of that story, it's a positive if you are open to the opinions of others and if you are able to adjust your policies after assessing the facts. Compromise and open-mindedness lead to progress.

In contrast to that, stomping your feet on the ground and not willing to move one inch because you are oh so "principled", will only end with you going home having achieved nothing.

[PatrickforO]

18. Good. So he has seen the error of his initial position. I'm very glad

to see this, because it shows that Biden can admit he's wrong and evolve in the face of evidence.

[onetexan]

28. And that is one of the tests of a true leader

One that has the openmindedness & humility to listen to others and be willing to compromise. They also forge stronger relationships with others when they're willing to bring together different people for a common purpose.

[Midnight Writer]

33. Exactly.

[Ponietz]

20. There's beauty in that

[Mr. Ected]

23. Warren is a sharp negotiator. She worked out her differences with Joe

And together they will exceed the sum of their formidable selves.

[guillaumeb]

26. Recommended.

[jorgevlorgan]

27. this is absolutely fantastic news.

I have no doubt with his progressive shift, he will easily win the nomination and sweep the GE. Hope to see a lot more of this soon. Go Joe!!!

[PatSeg]

29. That was smart!

Good for him.

[Politicub]

35. Love how Biden is willing to evaluate new ideas and change

It’s one of his many virtues.

[Turin_C3PO]

36. Wow, that's great!

The two main problems I had with Biden was his support of the 94 crime bill and the bankruptcy bill. So I’m very happy to hear this.

[pattyloutwo]

40. For sure

Her smarts are needed now more than ever

[Mars and Minerva]

39. That's known as "Good Politics"! nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

42. So much for compromise

[aikoaiko]

43. Another admission of poor decision making when it counted as a Senator

Really, an admission of guilt.


But other than that it's good that Joe is evolving again.

[showblue22]

44. Like Bernie did on guns and immigration?

[aikoaiko]

45. Not exactly.

[Cha]

47. BS didn't "evolve" on the gun issue?

[OnDoutside]

49. Lol !

[iwannaknow]

50. How convenient for someone who fought for a horrifically draconian bankruptcy bill in 2004!

[emmaverybo]

52. Sour grapes? Warren will likely be one the standard bearer for the progressive party now. What

role Bernie plays depends on whether or not he continues to be seen as a “spoiler.”

I am sure Bernie will bring up any and all of Biden’s past record that he sees as “draconian,” as will
Biden bring up Bernie’s pro NRA stances, lack o& legislative accomplishment, and I hope, pro-Russia votes.
